Hello,
Been thinking about eventually taking the CFA but wanted to hear some experiences from others who have taken it.

Basically, I have an accounting degree, worked public accounting and now work at a hedge fund. I know for sure that I dont want to be a fund accountant for the rest of my life so I am thinking about a career change.

So here's my question: Even with the CFA title, what types of jobs can I potentially land? analyst? trader? Please keep in mind, I have no relevant experience in the finance side. Also, I am going to be 30 next year, is it too late for me to start a new career?

Any tips would be much appreciated.
